JEE Main 2021Differential Equations Question with Solution

From: JEE Main 2021 (Online) 27th August Morning Shift

Question

Let us consider a curve, y = f(x) passing through the point (2, 2) and the slope of the tangent to the curve at any point (x, f(x)) is given by f(x) + xf'(x) = x2. Then :

Correct answer
C

Step-by-step explanation

(given)



If

Solution of DE





Passes through (2, 2), so

12 = 8 + c c = 4

3xy = x3 4

i.e. 3x . f(x) = x3 4
